Abstract
Recent studies on plasmon-assisted chemical reactions postulate that the hot carriers of plasmon-excited nanostructures may induce a non-thermal vibrational activation of metal-bound reactants. However, a quantitative validation at the level of molecular quantum states is currently missing. I will present our recent spectroscopic studies on metal-bound reactants, which directly proves the non-thermal vibrational molecular excitations caused by plasmons.
